Unexpected tire damage
I just inspected my 30' fifth wheel and discovered that one of the tires has a roughly 5"x10" spot where all of the tread wore off. The damage is on the outer edge where the tread meets the sidewall....

At some point on the last homeward bound 300 mile leg of a trip, I picked up a large spike in the right rear inside dually. Didn't even notice it until the day after I got home when checking the air pressures. I know I was lucky. I replaced both tires on that side.
After that, I had a TPMS installed, and I carry an inflated spare in the storage compartment. To make room, I removed the giant tool box and replaced it with a small fishing tackle box that contains Phillips and slotted screwdrivers, an easement tool (hammer) and a Good Sam roadside assistance card. Those are the only tools I know how to use anyway.
